This is so bizarre.. this gives me such a nostalgic feeling because me and my cousin used to believe the Waluigi rumors as kids and this is EXACTLY what we envisioned to unlock him.. I’m so excited to see this brought to life! Thank you!
As good as "analog horror" Mario 64 videos can be, they never hit in a way that I could relate. I was too young to own a N64 and I only played the DS remake during my childhood. This video hit the exact spot of weirdness imo, not too much, but just enough for those who've played the game something's going on. Cool video.
Literally brought my childhood to life with this. I'm not sure how viable this is, but if there's any chance this could ever see some sort of release, that would be incredible. Been wanting to see this brought to life for at least 12 years now.
Breaking the Barrier got a public release so I imagine this will too. But like BTB it'll probably just be this new part of the game with none of the other levels or stars accessible
Actually I think it's actually just adding Waluigi to the game as another playable character and along with his own power flower. Which I think will be super speed.
This reminds me of when SM64 DS and rumors of Waluigi really had a big part of my childhood Back then, i had dreams of hidden areas in the game, I'd wake up and try to find the areas in the real game
7.8/10 video Pros - Great hacking - Love those references for Waluigi SM64DS fakes - Poor video quality makes it feel more legit and kinda nostalgic Cons - TOO MUCH WATER
Wow, this is honestly really cool! I always wanted to do something like this with my Waluigi mod but was never far enough into SM64DS hacking to make anything as cool as this lol. It's just like all the classic Waluigi rumors brought to life.
Oh my... This video unlocked a lot of memories, and I didn't expect this urban legend to come resurfacing now. I remember the deep dive that WWWWario did (back in 2013-2014) about the Waluigi theory. You and the rest of the contributors did an exceptional job of mimicking the style of those DS gameplay videos, and of the images that WWWWario had shown in his explanation. Just clear enough to send the imagination flying, and blurry enough to hide the truth behing a veil of mystery. +1 Subscriber!
Funnily enough I had a dream that Waluigi, Daisy, and even Peach were unlockable characters.You had to do something with Wario to get Waluigi, do something with Luigi to get Daisy, and lose Mario's hat to the bird in the desert level, then send Daisy to get it, then she'd wear it and fight Bowser (up the endless stairs), when after she beats him Peach would be unlocked
I saw your first breaking the barrier videos when they were released and you're still the best at whatever genre of Mario dream videos this is. With this one I think it might have been better if the Waluigi/piranna plant level had the sunny sky backdrop and played Bob-Omb-Battlefield to help differentiate it from the Goombah boss level. Physical aesthetics could stay the same. Looking forward to the next one!
Watch this be revealed 24 years and 1 month anniversary of SM64 DS. This person recording is actually a Nintendo executive and released this footage under the impression people would take them as a random modder and that they wouldn’t be noticed. lol
I swear to this day that my friend had a version of this game where it was possible to enter the door in the moat before you drained it. It was one of those hacked cartidges from China with like 50 games on it. If you swam towards the door and then turned 180 degrees, a door would spawn behind you and you could get inside. It doesn't even matter, but I just remember it so vividly even though I was only like 5
Hell yeah, this is impressive! Good job to everyone who made this! I can't believe all this came out from a little black square on the castle. Now I think there will be also the purple rabbits
Alt unverse where we actual found Waluigi maybe Arceus2401 was from this unverse or simallar one who came our unverse not knowing we can never find Waluigi besides his best efforts to help us.
I'm actually begging that this is something that will be playable in the future. I genuinely need this, this is everything my clueless childhood self hunting for Waluigi in this game ever wanted! If there's any way this can be supported then please! Phenomenal job, I am actually speechless!
@@Ludovico_s I don't know I just said that it has to be something I can put on to my r4 card. I'm actually wondering if you can download it as well. I would really love it because it would really pay homage to me when I was a kid thinking that waluigi was a secret character in the original Mario 64 DS finding ways to unlock them but couldn't. With this mod I can play as waluigi. I am wondering if this mod is even released
I can't believe someone managed to have actual lost footage of Waluigi in Super Mario 64 DS I thought those low res images back in the early ages were the only sources and possibly fake, you are such a legend for managing to preserve this! Oof I was schmeckledorfed (great prank ngl) and forgot to react to the original video
Hopefully this can become playable, although I fully understand that it will take time to complete. I'm intrigued that inside the black box, in addition to the entrance to the negative version of the second floor of the castle, there are more doors and one with a large star, so one could infer that there are plans to include more stages. As for the level to get Waluigi's key in the room of mirrors in the negative world, it was a good idea to use Mario's because it does look like a garden. What makes it different from Mario's is that in this one some paths have been changed and it doesn't have toxic liquid, but the platforms are in the air and that makes it more difficult.
However, there is something I don't understand and that is why in the negative version of the second floor they have put all the walls full of the Jolly Roger Bay paintings (on the second floor of the castle also this one, but there are also the Bom-bomb paintings, the one of the Mountain, etc), including the room with the 3 paintings of the Goombas that are replaced by Jolly Roger Bay. I don't know if it refers to the Submerged Castle.
@@TBoz_bowling No, Goomboss, King Boo, and Chief Chilly stages have 2 stars, and I remember Waluigi having a higher jump than Yoshi, better swim and run than luigi, and able to break black bricks like wario, he's also taller than this, and I remember, he can fly after backflipping.
@@TBoz_bowling The black box entrance is real, but, not the whole room, if you want to access the place, 1st. beat Bowser with all 150 stars, and watch the ending, then, be Wario, and go into the frontyard of the castle, and use the cannon, and do a back flip there, then, you can see the place, there are challenge rooms in this place, but every time you try to enter them not as Waluigi, you get denied access to them, so the room in the middle, is where to find Waluigi's Painting, it's blocked by a black brick, and the stage is beach styled, and you spawn on a purple switch, the boss is Petey Piranha, once you touch the purple Waluigi switch, the rec room will change, as in, the White Room, now has Purple Lining and carpet on it, and there is an upside down L on top of it, and when you haven't unlocked Waluigi, it will say, "It's Locked, someone is picking the door's lock on the other side."
Oh my god this is childhood turned into reality... I remember watching the old video of someone explaining all that happened in the video but never showing actual gameplay. Now feels like it has turned to real... Had I been a kid I would have believed this so hard 😂 kind of those Pokémon tutorials of how to get such and such legendary but it was actually footage, or those of "Press select and press X or Y, then Arceus appears"... Very nostalgic 😊
I _still_ want to see the creation of a romhack of "Super Mario 64 DS" where they didn't just replace Mario with Waluigi, but *added* Waluigi as a *fifth* playable character (as per the "Purple Prizes" article). Also, I say _this_ video shows *exactly* how it should work... ;)
For me all I could say is I’ve played Mario 64 DS the whole entire level and from this video that I saw this is a level I’ve never done or defeated or saw the negative world I don’t know how that person got Waluigi‘s door there.
Now this is well made! And with lots of old references!
Agreed, I'm hoping we get to play this. I'm eager to find out what his power flower is?
Holy cow is that wwwario I used to watch your vidoe about sm64ds all the time!
Yes that is wwwario.
I wonder what arceus2401 is doing nowadays
Hi wariowariowario

It's almost like that's the purpose 🤯
Same here
the video camera and old DS really adds to the experience
fr
If you’d shown this to 2011 me I would’ve had a heart attack
Super well made though and very cathartic for me over a decade on :)
I'm so glad is finally real
This is a big project in the works
Yep, but there’s no… King Rabbit in the Waluigi’s Stage
@@alexistramirez I'll admit, that was something I was kinda hoping for too. Along with maybe those spring shoes. Still amazing either way.
This is what I dreamed about as a kid and what I spent hours and hours trying to unlock in vain, I would love a ROM release of this
It is on the way

Feels like something I’d have watched in 2010
2006 for me!
It looks more like 2008 or 2009
Someone said it before, but it amazes me how you can make the game feel exactly as if you were dreaming about it.
ohhh the flooded castle yard brought memories back
This reminds me of when SM64 DS and rumors of Waluigi really had a big part of my childhood
Back then, i had dreams of hidden areas in the game, I'd wake up and try to find the areas in the real game
Literally the most cathartic thing for the people who were kids back during the rumors... Thank you and your team for this, looking forward to more ❤

7.8/10 video
Pros
- Great hacking
- Love those references for Waluigi SM64DS fakes
- Poor video quality makes it feel more legit and kinda nostalgic
Cons
- TOO MUCH WATER
this takes me way back man. i remember people saying there was a window on the side of the castle with waluigi hidden in it!
This is probably the best thing that he has ever done!

Ok first is Waluigi now this is becoming Greenio DS Edition
*AND I AM LOVING IT!!*
Hell yeah, this is impressive! Good job to everyone who made this! I can't believe all this came out from a little black square on the castle. Now I think there will be also the purple rabbits
holy shit i wasn't expecting the submerged castle
This would've gone triple platinum with me at age 9.
It feels like i watched this in 2010. Very well made
I could have sworn ive seen a video like this back in 2009
Funny that we all thought Waluigi would be playable but in reality it turns out Peach was originally supposed to be a playable character
HE ACTUALLY DID IT!!!! CONGRATULATIONS MAN!!!
Alt unverse where we actual found Waluigi maybe Arceus2401 was from this unverse or simallar one who came our unverse not knowing we can never find Waluigi besides his best efforts to help us.
8 year old me has finally been validated this is the coolest thing I've ever seen
AT LAST AFTER ALL THESE YEARS (please make this public I beg you)
I'm actually begging that this is something that will be playable in the future. I genuinely need this, this is everything my clueless childhood self hunting for Waluigi in this game ever wanted! If there's any way this can be supported then please! Phenomenal job, I am actually speechless!
W is real 2024
Brings back memories of being one of many naive, gullible kids in the mid 2000s
>move the camera closer to read the textbox
>it just becomes more blurry
Bravo
I've been waiting over a decade for this
“They called me crazy!!”
I havent even watched this yet but I know my childhood dream is about to come to life. Crossing my fingers for the hole in the castle wall.
Amazing, honestly. The mod looks great and the recording is perfect too. If I watched this as a kid I wouldve shit my pants
And then Waluigi appears hyper-realistic in a floating island, surrounded by discord spam chat, and starts to speak japanese.
I can’t believe the video ended right as he went through the door, you can’t just leave the mystery like that
Ayo? "Luigi" wall sliding at 3:28?
9 minute MNova vid in 2024?? WE’RE EATING GOOD TONIGHT!

I wish Waluigi was in Super Mario 64 DS.
this is how I imagined unlocking waluigi would be as a kid like literally how I pictured in my head this is accurate 😂
i need this version of the game
Long live the Purple Prizes!
Oh this is getting extremely dope
Did you see that? 7:38
Bro, I need a full on rom hack of this!
Yes, this is going to be released when it's in a good spot.
I wish Mario 64 DS had this post game easter egg.

Why am I so invested in this
Ima go back in time to 2014 n show the world this!!

Need proof of this being real....april fools has passed this is too good to be true
If this video had existed in the early years of YT it would have caused a huge stir upon learning that WL is real.
👌
I would spend hours trying to unlock waluigi when I was little if I saw this back then I would totally believe it
Omg!! Somebody finally solved the mystery and unlocked Waluigi!
Holy shit Purple Prizes
Here before this gets huge
